i was able to reconfigure settings successfully before i'd heard anything
about 'configurator.' but i had friends who ran it on their system and
totally messed things up. i uninstalled IE 5.5 and installed IE 6 and that
solved a problem of IE and OE not working. Netscape would browse if i went
into the proxy settings under preferences and deleted the setting for @home.
the only problem is that we can't get the setting to stay permanently
deleted. has anyone else had that problem?
